Sarah Jessica Parker Takes Design Role at Halston Heritage

After stepping out in looks from Halston on the Sex and the City 2 set, rumors sparked that Sarah Jessica Parker was about to ink a deal with the company. And now, it looks like the brand has finally gotten “Carrie-d” away. Sarah Jessica will be taking on an active design role, possibly even that of creative director, for Halston Heritage, the company’s just-launched secondary collection that features updated archival Halston pieces at contemporary price points, reports WWD. The company has yet to release details on their decision to add the actress to their team, but one thing is for sure, Sarah Jessica is no stranger to the fashion game. Having reached fashion icon status playing Sex and the City‘s Carrie Bradshaw, the actress went on to create the affordable apparel line Bitten for Steve & Barry in 2007. (The line was discontinued a year later.) We can’t wait to see how Sarah Jessica will put her fashion-forward imprint on the label once favored by First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy to jet-setters Bianca Jagger and Elizabeth Taylor.

The truth is Penelope Cruz, Charlize Theron, Selma Hayak are a few that really look fantastic……..And they can act…….There is always that pedestrian mentality however……….Ohhh…..Dear……I had my own label at 22……..Before children………….There……..I think I have a grip and a point of view…….I do think her name carries weight……..Good luck

Ms. Parker has always been involved in fashion. You don’t wear the latest by not knowing what is going on and that is the whole design game. She will be great!
